I could understand the discussion if it were about providing 500 kBit continuously vs. 1 Mbit for 2 of 4 weeks. But the particular case was about providing no less than 6 Mbit continuously, which is easily enough to comfortably browse the web, for doing large downloads and probably exhausts most internet connections in unfree countries. Accordingly it's unlikely a single connection is hobbled by such a bandwidth limitation.

It might be a good idea to relax this recommendation for services above some threshold, where a "limitation" doesn't actually cause a noticably lower quality of service.
